  Edward T. Welch helps readers explore how God’s Word speaks to finding wisdom, rest, and hope in Jesus following a psychiatric diagnosis.  What do you do when you recognize yourself or someone you love in descriptions like “OCD,” “bipolar disorder,” “PTSD,” or “narcissism”? A psychiatric diagnosis can be a heavy burden—for you or someone you love. The DSM can give you a detailed description, but what next? These struggles can be life-dominating. But we know this: God is not silent when his people struggle. What does God say?  I Have a Psychiatric Diagnosis guides readers in listening to God, who has compassion for those who are struggling in these painful ways. Listening to God through the Bible reshapes psychological descriptions and functions as a corrective lens that opens our eyes.  Practical, accessible, and concise guidance on moving forward after a psychiatric diagnosis, written by an experienced counselor and best-selling author.  Part of the Ask the Christian Counselor series, walking readers through their deepest and most profound questions.  Gives readers the tools to understand the struggles that come with a psychiatric diagnosis and how the gospel brings hope and healing to the problem they are facing.  Compact format goes deeper than New Growth Press’s popular minibooks without overwhelming the reader.

  Look Unto Me in Every Thought

  Every child of God, despite our past spiritual experiences, can expect to have our faith and testimony tested during our spiritual journey. Doubt is a normal part of our faith experience. The question is not whether moments of doubt will arise in our lives, but where we will turn and who we will look to when they do arise. 
  Our Savior, Jesus Christ, taught us where to look when doubt threatens our faith. "Look unto me in every thought," he said, "doubt not, fear not" (Doctrine and Covenants 6:36). 
  Look unto Me in Every Thought is a guide for Latter-day Saints to navigate through storms of doubt, strengthen our connection with Christ, and seek answers to the deepest questions of our souls. 
  Whether your testimony feels strong and immovable, or you feel your faith is hanging by a thread, this book is a source of comfort, wisdom, and renewed faith, offering a pathway to a restored sense of peace and a stronger and more profound relationship with our Savior, Jesus Christ

  Personality and Worldview

  An Examination of Worldview, Worldvision, and the Soul by Dutch Reformed Theologian J. H. Bavinck, Translated into English for the First Time
  Modern evangelicals differ on their concept of "worldview." Many have varying definitions of it and some even consider it to be a wholly unhelpful term in understanding the world around them. This volume by Johan Herman Bavinck examines the relationship between the soul, each human's unique personality, and worldview—acknowledging the importance of worldview while recognizing the dangers if worldviews are misapplied. 
  Personality and Worldview by J. H. Bavinck, nephew and student of Dutch Reformed theologian Herman Bavinck, creates a distinction between a worldvision (which all people have) and a worldview (which only few have in a mature and wise way). Profoundly influenced by the works of St. Augustine, Bavinck challenges readers to allow the gospel to reshape their worldviews and their personalities as they pursue godly wisdom. Translated into English for the first time by James Eglinton, Bavinck's accessible prose, personal applications, and more will greatly serve pastors, students, and laypeople alike. 
  
  -  Foreword by Timothy Keller: Keller writes, "I could not be happier that Johan Herman Bavinck's Personality and Worldview has been made accessible to the English-speaking world. It is an important work, perhaps even what we call a 'game-changer.'"
  -  Edited and Translated by James Eglinton: An expert scholar and author on the Dutch neo-Calvinist tradition 
  -  Introduction by the Editor: Provides an overview of the book and a brief introduction to Johan Herman Bavinck's life
  -  For Readers Who Enjoy Herman Bavinck: Works as a follow-up text to Herman Bavinck's Christian Worldview

  Church Camp - Bad Skits Cry...

  Excavating a sometimes wacky, and equally harmful, part of white Evangelical culture 
  Roasted marshmallows, campfire stories, shaving cream battles--for some of us, Christian summer camp is where we felt most at home, where we could be the most authentic versions of ourselves. But for campers at white Evangelical church camps in particular, camp was also often the place to inherit a toxic image of God and of each other. From purity-motivated admonitions not to "make purple," to the emotional manipulation of "Cry Night," to the utter lack of diversity among campers and staff, the culture of white Evangelical camps has too often betrayed a generation. 
  In Church Camp, longtime camp speaker Cara Meredith exposes the ways in which white Evangelical camps sold individualized versions of Jesus to impressionable youth. Campers were forced to "sit with their sin" so they could fully understand God's conditional love. Camp life emotionally coaxed campers into making a formative commitment to Christ (and therefore to white Evangelical subculture). Further, camps commodified the faith of these young people to bolster their own funding and power. 
  Along the way, Meredith weaves in notable history of the camping movement, revivalism, and white Evangelicalism. She asks profound questions about who God is and what it means to be human. Following the progression of a typical week at camp, Church Camp weaves together Meredith's own story and the powerful stories of dozens of other former campers and camp staff members. Along the way, she invites us into the tension of accounting for our past while moving toward a better future. 
  Whether you went to church camp or not, whether you loved camp or hated it, Church Camp will peel back the layers, hold the powerful accountable, and help you envision a more vibrant, loving, and inclusive faith.
